Tanzania!

Our journey from Nairobi to Moshi took us eight hours on a very hot and dusty bus. Got to admit that this was probably shorter than we anticipated, especially as it included being dropped off in a car park in the middle of no where and waiting over an hour for another bus to pick us up!

It was definately worth the journey. Moshi is a very busy little town where you can buy almost anything - and if you don't have cash swapping things of your own is fine! There are loads of restaurants and bars - however - they are very much on African time - all of the volunteers (about 16 of us) went out for dinner last week at half 7 and our food finally arrived at 11pm!! Much to our surprise the local swimming pool is very clean and even has a dodgy looking diving board at one end (neither of us have dared that yet though).

We are teaching at a two class secondary school that was opened last May. Each class has about 50 pupils of varying ages (13 to 17) and abilities. After the shock of the first day where we were told 'teach' (and Ad ended up teaching Tanzanian History) we have begun to settle in .

Hope to hear from you soon.
